The Christmas Candle Georg Johannes Gick A candle let me be to shine before the manger; Let me stay as a burning sign to all who pass along this way… So that some poor wandering stranger may see my light and come, leave earth’s streets and find a manger that is all men’s home. Then let my wax drip to the floor with the love I bring; Only when I am no more will I be everything! In this cycle of poems, each person, animal, and object at the stable sings for the child.
